Ultra Virus
This build has been a constant evolution. It's been upgraded and reconfigured so many times I've lost count. It's mostly built from used parts as and when they come up on a good deal. The important stuff I've bought new like storage, PSU, fittings and a few bits that I couldn't find used.
The goal of Ultra Virus was to provide as much cooling as possible to the CPU since this is primarily an overclocking build (I am addicted). At present the most I can get out of my i7 3939k is 4.3Ghz stable (working on 4.5 but it's not quite there yet) but it's more than capable of high/ultra settings in most games. I may try and get a Xeon chip in the future as they tend to be better binned and might overclock higher.
